CBS’ daytime show “The Talk” continues to gain speed, and for the first time in its nearly four years on the air, it beat ABC’s “The View” in key demos!
According to Nielsen live plus same day ratings, the CBS talker — which includes co-hosts Sara Gilbert, Sheryl Underwood, Aisha Tyler, Sharon Osbourne and Julie Chen — topped “The View” in women 25-54 by +10% (1.1/07 vs. 1.0/07) and by +14% in women 18-49 (0.8/05 vs. 0.7/05) for the week ending Friday, July 11.
This comes hot on the heels of the news that controversial panelist Rosie O’Donnell will be returning to “The View,” which just recently lost panelists Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy.
